    Hi from SW MO

    Just recently got my 1st kilt,yay. Had been wanting a kilt forever but just never could justify the cost of getting one, particularly one in the correct clan tartan plus accessories. Then I finally discovered utility kilts. Not necessarily traditional but affordable and practical, I could where it all the time. My wife thinks I'm nuts. I'm all the time browsing the net for different kilts and accessories and the different ways to wear them, casual to formal. I finally found a couple of places where I may get the correct tartan kilt without breaking the bank. Again my wife thinks I'm nuts.
    I got excited about kilts when I finally found that my ancestors were Scottish lairds , originating from Grimmet, near Maybole. Guess that's enough for now.

    Well met and welcome new member. I too have a wife that questions my choice of being kilted. I've been breaking her down slowly for 4 years now. Glad to have you with us. Keep up the adventure of kilts.

    Welcome from a Scotsman living in middle England. My wife also thinks I'm more than a little odd!

    Greetings from the KC Metro. Don't worry about the Mrs. mine still rolls her eyes when I take mine off the hanger. At least she doesn't say "you're not going to wear that are you" anymore.
